Can someone explain to me this “Waaaaalt” reference everyone keeps making? I guess I’m not well-versed in whatever it is.
That would be the Mojave Desert Mall, would it? Which lures L.A. buyers with it’s unique wares all the time? 
It’s from the show “Lost” and has become a repeated joke in those threads. There’s a character named Michael who has a young son named Walt. Walt was kidnapped by mysterious bad guys on the island, and Michael’s best strategy for getting him back has so far been to take off aimlessly into the jungle yelling, “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLTTTTTTTTTT!”
Unless Jack was hitting the Waffle House in the mornings and Sizzler in the p.m., he probably had zero chance of running into Edgar (edger? Dunno).
When Jack had the scissors in the assassin’s neck, did anyone else think of the similar scene in Absolute Power? I won’t give away what happened beyond that it involved President Palmer.
‘Mercy?’
‘Sorry - I’m fresh out’
Chloe’s gone from JarJar ugly to ‘not bad as long as she’s not scowling, smirking or doing anything else similar with her face.’ It’s depressing that a dork like the President could have a wife with that kind of cleavage. And Audrey is hotter than ever, though my wife said something about her having a crooked nose and I kept looking at that the rest of the episode.
Speaking of Audrey, couldn’t she have told the Hobbit to shove off when he basically ordered her to question the MJLF? She’s w DOD, right? Twerpy little bastard.

So when does the first lady come back, and how does she fit in at this point?

Rumor has it she runs off to Atlanta and joins three other women and one black guy in an interior decorating business.
Next time, on “24”!!!
Flight Attendant: “Would you like headphones for the in-flight movie, sir?”
Jack: “No, just get me a pillow. GET ME A PILLOW, NOW!”
Hmmm…so, they manage to drag things out for the rest of the day in LA, looking for the nerve gas, foiling assorted idiotic subplots, etc.
Then, next season of 24 takes place entirely on an airplane to Moscow! (Well, at least the first half of it does.)
Of course this is an aiplane with assorted hijackers and terrorists, an attractive flight attendant (who somehow manages to get her foot caught in a cougar trap in the galley), maybe a nun and a kid who needs a heart transplant, and a few poisonous snakes. And Jack Bauer.
Mojave is not a bad place to hang out if you want to stay away from Los Angeles and still be relatively close to it. There is very little reason for anyone from L.A. to go there. There’s nothing there. There’s not even a Waffle House. And I don’t believe there’s a Sizzler either.
If you saw the prequel included on the season 4 dvds, the original plan involved a mullet as well.
Come to think of it, he was in Chicago in the prequel…he only came back to Cali after there was an attempt on his life (he referenced this in this episode.) SO perhaps Jack knew that something was coming down and re-located so he would be closer to the action.
You say that like it’s a bad thing.
The nearest Sizzler is apparently 25 miles away in Lancaster. But let’s not forget: Jack can commandeer a helicopter if needed.
Chloe, there’s too long of a line at the salad bar, can you pull up the schematics of this Sizzler and can I burrow underneath it?
And make sure you give me the positions of the waiters and the busboys. I need to know where they are deployed. And hurry! I’m hungry!
My lunch break is almost over - WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!
Manager: Mr. Bauer, if you don’t show yourself, I’m going to remove the spitguard!
Manager: Uh, make that the sneezeguard!
Terrorist leader: If the President doesn’t meet with our demands, we will spit into the lettuce! Then into the tomatoes! And every 15 minutes, into another dish, until our demands are met!
I’ll vouch for that. I have an uncle who lives in Antelope Valley – I think his house is about 25 miles west of Lancaster. I’ve been there. Once. The nearest item of interest was a tumbleweed.
Chloe, I’ve got a problem here. Just what do you tip the waiters here? I mean I had to stand in line to order my food? Do they get the full 15%? I need information here Chloe!
Oh, dammit, they’re jamming the signals!
They have found out the moles WAY too early - there has to be another set of them. (when following somwone, always folow with two vehicles, one obvious tailer that the suspect vehicle will lose and get a flase sense of security and the real tailing vehicle)
Obvioulsy the nerve gas will be used to steal a submarine or something (there has to be another layer to the plan)

I read an article in Entertainment Weekly that mentioned
Minor Spoiler:
The terrorists are going to test the Nerve Gas at a Mall
